Before & after
North Texas expansive clay soils shift dramatically between wet springs and dry summers. Concrete that isn't properly prepped, reinforced and control-jointed will crack, heave and separate from the existing slab within a few seasons. Whether it's a decorative stamped patio or an ADA-compliant ramp, we engineer every pour to move with Texas ground — the right base, the right rebar, the right joints and the right finish for the job.
- Stamped, brushed, smooth-troweled, salt, exposed-aggregate and acid-stained decorative finishes
- Driveways, driveway extensions, sidewalks, walkways and approach work
- Ready ramps and ADA-compliant accessibility ramps built to slope and landing standards
- Patios, hot-tub pads, shed slabs and outdoor-kitchen foundations
- 4,000 PSI air-entrained concrete rated for Texas freeze-thaw cycles
- #4 rebar on 18" grid or fiber-reinforced mix — never just wire mesh
- Doweled tie-ins and saw-cut control joints placed to ACI spacing standards

How A-Legacy handles concrete work — stamped, brushed, smooth & decorative
A-Legacy Construction & Property Services pours residential concrete across Frisco, Plano, McKinney, Allen and the greater North Dallas area — patios, driveway extensions, sidewalks, walkways, ADA and ready ramps, and slab pours for hot tubs, sheds and outdoor kitchens. Every job is finished the way you want it: broom-brushed, hard-troweled smooth, salt, exposed aggregate, integrally colored, or stamped and stained decorative concrete that mimics stone, wood plank or brick.
Every project is led personally by Angel Cerna — one licensed craftsman on-site from the first walk-through through the final finish. No hand-offs, no rotating subcontractors, no surprises on invoice day.
Our process
Step-by-step, no surprises
Every concrete work — stamped, brushed, smooth & decorative project follows the same disciplined sequence — so you always know what's happening next.
1. On-site consultation & measurement
Angel visits your property, measures the pour area, checks grade and drainage, and talks through finish, color, layout and (for ramps) slope, rise and landing requirements in plain English.
2. Written, itemized quote
You get a clear proposal broken down by demo, base prep, forming, reinforcement, concrete, decorative finish and cleanup — no vague lump sums.
3. Permits & utility locates
For driveway extensions, sidewalks in the right-of-way and larger slabs we pull the required city permits and schedule 811 utility locates before ground is broken.
4. Demo, excavation & base prep
Existing concrete is saw-cut cleanly. We over-excavate, install a compacted crushed-stone base, and verify slope for positive drainage and — on ramps — code-compliant rise-to-run.
5. Forming, rebar & dowels
Forms are set true and level. Rebar is tied on chairs at the correct depth and doweled into any adjacent existing slab so the new pour moves as one.
6. Pour, finish & cure
Concrete is placed, screeded and finished to your chosen texture — broom, smooth, stamped, colored, exposed or salt. Control joints are cut within 12 hours and a curing compound is applied.
7. Walk-through & warranty
We walk the finished project with you, confirm cleanup and hand over our written workmanship warranty.

Frequently asked
Concrete Work — Stamped, Brushed, Smooth & Decorative questions from North Dallas homeowners
What's the difference between stamped, brushed, smooth and decorative concrete?+
Brushed (broom) finish is the standard slip-resistant texture for driveways and walkways. Smooth (hard-troweled) is common for covered patios and shop floors. Stamped concrete is imprinted with mats to mimic stone, brick or wood plank and paired with color. Decorative concrete covers stains, dyes, exposed aggregate and salt finishes. We walk you through samples during the estimate.
Do you build ADA-compliant ramps for homes?+
Yes — we build ready ramps and ADA-compliant accessibility ramps in concrete (and, when appropriate, aluminum or wood) with the correct 1:12 slope, level landings and edge protection so they're safe, code-compliant and built to last.
How long before I can drive on my new concrete driveway or extension?+
Foot traffic is fine after 24–48 hours. Light vehicles at 7 days. Full vehicle loads and heavy trucks after the full 28-day cure — we mark and rope off fresh pours during that window.
Do I need a permit for a driveway extension or sidewalk in Frisco or Plano?+
Most North Dallas cities require a permit for driveway widening, new sidewalks or approach work in the city right-of-way. We handle the permit, drawings and inspections as part of the job.
